The Mermaid Suite, walk to Beaches, 15 min to town

WhitleyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Margaret's place was perfect for my weekend trip to Nantucket! It was much larger than the photos made it seem, which was a plus! The space was so clean, spacious, and had everything I needed for my trip. The location was great, easy to get to the main roads and beaches both, also right next to the airport! I would definitely stay here again.

Charter House Luxury Home 2 Blocks from Town

LindsayRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Our family of five absolutely fell in love with this gorgeous home. We all slept so well in the deluxe beds and made lots of memories playing games in the living rooms. The kitchen was well stocked and very fun to cook in. We loved using the grill, and the back patio is so picturesque. My kids loved using the house’s sound system. The house is EVEN BETTER in person than in the photos. We didn’t want to leave. The decor is very chic. The home should be featured in magazines!! The location is so convenient. The home is surrounded by homes from the 18th and 19th centuries- so cool!! We hope to return soon. Thank you!!

Beautiful Custom Nantucket Home

KathyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Great location with east access to Madaket and an easy drive to town, or the bus route. I highly recommend taking a walk down the path to the 40th pole beach, which is a great place for kids (often no waves) and often protected from high winds. The deck off the kitchen and primary bedroom was the perfect place soak in the sun and the outdoor shower is as comforting as a spa.

Jill’s house was the perfect home base for our family vacation. The house was spotless, toddler-friendly, and ideally located. Jill was incredibly responsive to all my questions and provided clear, easy-to-follow check-in and check-out instructions. We’d definitely stay here again!

Spectacular beach & pool combo; beautiful sunsets!

RobynRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Resort vibes with a chef's kitchen and stunning views! ***** Our stay at Larry's house was fantastic! The kitchen was absolutely amazing - spacious, modern, and fully equipped with everything we needed. We enjoyed cooking and gathering there. The real highlight was the outdoor space. The view was breathtaking! The pool and hot tub made it feel like we were staying in a private resort. Michael was helpful and responsive, making everything easy from check in to check out. We would love to come back.

Whitney’s place is amazing! Great location and fantastic property. We had deer and wild turkeys walk through the yard during our stay. The house is well appointed and comfortable, and the hot tub was a nice end to long days.

cape cod riverview cottage

DonnaRating, 5 stars9 months ago
First of all, Nancy is a wonderful hostess. She responds almost immediately to inquiries. Now, about the cottage, this is absolutely one of the loveliest cottages I have ever stayed in. Nancy has decorated it in such a manner that it is comfortable, gorgeous, efficient, and I could go on and on. The cottage is actually more lovely than the photos on the website. The home is on the river and the views are lovely. We spent each evening sitting in lounge chairs watching fish jump. There are two bedrooms upstairs and the second floor has its own air conditioning/heat controls. The bathroom is large, and the shower is amazing. Downstairs is a laundry room with washer & dryer, sink and toilet. The first floor has the living room, kitchen and dining area. The first floor has its own ac/heat controls. The kitchen has everything you will ever need. The house is fragrance free and mold free. I definitely would stay here again.

Charming 3BR Nantucket Cottage by Town/Beach

JordanRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
My girlfriends and I stayed at this absolutely charming house in Nantucket over the weekend, and we couldn’t have been happier with our experience. Everything felt thoughtfully curated with a perfect mix of coastal charm and comfort. The location was ideal—quiet and peaceful, yet just a short walk or bike ride from shops, restaurants, and the beach. It was the perfect backdrop for a relaxing girls’ weekend, and we all agreed we’d come back in a heartbeat

Beach Glass Cottage - Pond Front

ChristopherRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Our first time on Cape Cod and we loved it! The Beach Glass Cottage is a perfect home base for exploring, was super clean and tidy, comfortable beds and furniture, and beautiful grounds next to a pond. Our hosts were terrific, they literally thought of everything to make our stay pleasant, and communication was quick and effortless. Would highly recommended Beach Glass Cottage!

Highly recommend taking the kayaks out as often as possible after sipping your morning coffee. Would recommend anyone stay here for a perfect getaway! The photos do not do it justice!

Martha's Vineyard Getaway Cottage

ChadRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Fantastic is the most appropriate word to describe our stay at the cottage. The location is very convenient to everything but it's also in a peaceful, private, wooded setting. The cottage is very close to perfect with a very comfortable but classy feel. It had everything we needed, had a fireplace that got used every night and the only bed we used in the master was as comfortable as ours at home. You can get to everything on MV in about 30 minutes but that's going from one tip of the island all the way to the Cliffs at the other end of MV. Each of the three towns (Vineyard Haven, Oaks Bluff and Edgartown) is within 2-15 minutes at most so it's a GREAT location for getting to all the places you'll want to spend time. Each has what we found to be a different personality/things to do. Marilyn's communication was stellar and she was beyond accommodating. This is one of our top 3 trips in 30+ years. The cottage makes it ideal and MV does not disappoint! Cannot wait to return!

gorgeous waterfront cottage w/4kayaks and 2 SUPs

JuliaRating, 5 stars3 days ago
We had such an amazing time staying at this beautiful little cottage! It was honestly so cute and perfect for our mini honeymoon! We were able to bring our dog which was great and I just can’t get over how nice it was! It was within like 10 minutes of driving to get to the main street of town to be able to walk around and shop but also gave us privacy and a nice calming backyard on the pond! Melissa was extremely responsive and gave us so many recommendations on local restaurants and other activities as well! I would definitely come back and I can’t wait until we do!

Unique Vineyard Tiny House “The Banana Stand”

AndrianaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We loved this AirBnB! The kitchen was stocked with everything you need to make a meal at home but it was also perfectly situated on the island not too far from Edgartown to go out to dinner! We enjoyed grilling outside, making s’mores with the outdoor fire pit, and using the outdoor shower! You can hop onto the bike trail easily from this AirBnB and bike to other parts of the island. Highly recommend this place!

Communication was top notch!!! We loved cape cod

Your guide to Nantucket

All About Nantucket

Visitors flock to the island of Nantucket — just 30 miles south of Cape Cod — to enjoy fresh-catch dining, check out the old cottages along cobblestone paths, or give their wardrobe an update with the unique boutiques dotting the retail areas. Nantucket’s nautical, whaling, and fishing past also draws in admirers, with no shortage of cultural events, concerts, museums, and galleries dedicated to sharing the island’s history with visitors. During the summer months, the dune-laden beaches are just about the perfect place to sunbathe away the day, and there are over 80 miles of it to pick the best spot from. With close proximity to the mainland, this northeastern island is a charming mixture of island and Massauchssets fun.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Nantucket

The summer months are the busiest time to be in Nantucket, as people descend on the island to bask in the sun, shop, eat, and boat around. But it’s the months of April, May, September, and October that mark the sweet spots in Nantucket’s annual calendar: the crowds are a bit thinner and the summer weather is a bit more comfortable.

Nantucket doesn’t completely shut down for the winter — many of the local businesses, bars, and restaurants stay open through Christmas, and there are a handful of holiday festivals pre-New Year’s, making this still a good time for a Vacation rental in Nantucket. Once the new year arrives, however, be prepared for things to get pretty quiet on the island until spring.


Top things to do in Nantucket

Nantucket Whaling Museum

Though we now understand whaling to be a devastating practice that faces all kinds of international bans, it was once a major industry, literally fueling much of the economic furnace of 19th-century America. The Nantucket Whaling Museum faces this history head-on, offering a revealing and fascinating view into what was once a massive industry, and into the big, beautiful whales that once thrived in the waters around Nantucket, Cape Cod, and the northeastern Atlantic.

Nantucket Beaches

The beaches of Nantucket are unadorned, unadulterated, and unsurpassed in their stark natural beauty. The fine-grained white sands are just the right cushion for summer sunbathers, and the surrounding dunes strewn across the island have been the inspiration for more than a few landscape painters.

Coskata-Coatue Wildlife Refuge

With origins in a land-acquisition deal that occurred in 1974, the Coskata-Coatue Wildlife Refuge remains a fixture on Nantucket, with an important mission of conservation, education, and preservation. You don’t have to be an animal lover to enjoy seeing the many raptors, deer, shorebirds, and seals that thrive here.
